I Let Go In Trust And Acceptance.
On this day in Holy Week, my thoughts turn to Jesus and how he must have felt as oppressive forces started to gather around him. Jesus did not flee or fight his oppressors. Instead, he stayed focused on his ministry and what he was called to do. Through his focus and intentionality, Jesus practiced a powerful spiritual surrender. I remember this as I may be called to live with unsettling circumstances over which I have no control. Like Jesus, I will give my attention and energy to what is mine to do. The rest—other people and their motives, uncertainty, even my own worry and fear—I surrender. I let go and let God. I release preferred outcomes and desires and trust I am eternally safe.
Let the Lord your God show us where we should go and what we should do.—Jeremiah 42:3
